A Taxing Ride
Companies and employees could be forced to pay out thousands of pounds in tax and national insurance (NI) on cab journeys to and from work as a result of a new interpretation on late night working hours by HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC).

The latest guidance note states that commuting journeys between a permanent workplace and home are classed as private journeys. If the cost of that journey is met by the employer it is a benefit in kind and tax and NI Contributions (NICs) will be due.

The guidance also affects employees who use a taxi as an alternative to their usual car pooling scheme. Employers are being advised to keep detailed records of taxi journeys provided to employees, and account for Income Tax and National Insurance on the value of the benefit employees receive.
